The flag of the Regional District of Kitimat-Stikine, British Columbia,
consists of three horizontal stripes green-white-green where the white stripe
is much wider. On the white stripe are positioned the RD logo and "Regional
District of/Kitimat-Stikine" in two rows of different fonts. Here is the
official description and story of the logo:
"This Regional District's
logo uses a green triangle. When designing our logo, we wanted to get away
from the typical old style coat of arms look, with dancing bears and leaping
fish - even though we can boast of plenty of each in this region. We wanted to
convey a crisp, efficient, more modern look. The triangle has five
"incisions". This number is significant because we are (or were at that time)
a federation of five incorporated communities and five rural electoral areas
(EAs). (We've since temporarily added a sixth EA.) The choice of a green
colour was also deliberate as we wanted to keep a reference to our impressive
natural landscape. So reading the triangle as a tree or as a snow capped
mountain is exactly the response we wanted to create.
The logo was
designed by graphic artist Mike Rossiter of Richmond, British Columbia. The
logo was adopted around 1995."

About the regional
district:
"The Regional District of Kitimat-Stikine is a type of local
government administration in northwestern British Columbia, Canada. As of the
Canada 2001 Census it had a population of 40,876 living on a land area of
91,910.63 km². Its administrative offices are in the city of Terrace. The
next-largest municipality in the regional district is the District
Municipality of Kitimat. The other incorporated municipalities in the regional
district are the Village of Hazelton, the District of New Hazelton and the
District of Stewart. Unincorporated communities are many, most of them Indian
Reserves which are not part of the governmental system of the regional
district, which has limited powers relating mostly to municipal-type services.
The remote settlement of Dease Lake, formerly in the Stikine Region, was added
to the regional district on December 1, 2007." - from Wikipedia:
